Forget the birds and the bees, let’s learn about how mammals make babies and look after them! This beautifully presented science book explains the facts of life by looking at reproduction and birth in mammal species. Through short, concise texts and warm, engaging illustrations, we learn about fertilisation, gestation, birth, breastfeeding and early parenting across the mammalian order. Did you know that, unlike other mammals, whale calves are born tail first, so that the mother can push them to the surface to breathe as soon as they emerge? Or that echidnas do not have nipples? Their young lick milk that seeps from pores in their chests. Easily understood by kids as young as four, this is an informative and enjoyable way of learning about babies and where they come from.

With bold, bright illustrations by award-winning illustrator, Becky Thorns, this is a marvellous science/biology book that will get kids thinking about how their bodies interact with and make sense of the world around them. Praise for Cat Eyes and Dog Whistles ''While the science is clear and accurate, there is also room for gentle humour, as we explore ear wax, distinctive smells, and dizziness, and the sections on animals and their senses are informative and entertaining in equal measure''. -- Just Imagine ''A lively and engaging narrative gives brilliant insight, accompanied by colourful and equally lively illustrations. It's time to make sense of the senses!'' -- The BookActivist ''Adorably illustrated. A great way to introduce growing kids to the science of the body in living beings''. -- Armadillo Children's Magazine ''A fascinating book to help children in KS2 learn about how humans and animals experience and relate to the world around them''. -- School Reading List ''Useful for accompanying the science curriculum, it's very informative and children will like the drawings, which have a humourous edge to them''. -- Reading Zone You won't believe your eyes... or ears or nose....! Learn how our bodies make sense of reality in this fact packed book about sensory perception. They say that seeing is believing - and there's some truth in that. Highly sensitive receptor cells in our eyes, ears, noses, tongues and skin relay messages to the brain and allow us to interpret the things going on around us, creating our sense of reality. But how do our senses work? And how do they differ from the senses of other animals? This book takes young readers step by step through the biology of each of the senses. Clear texts are peppered with fascinating facts. Did you know that, unlike the other senses, smells are delivered directly to the parts of our brain that are responsible for memory and emotion, meaning that smells can trigger feelings in a way that sight or sound can't? Did you know that a cow has about 250,000 taste buds, compared to 5,000 of a human, and a mere 30 of a chicken? Or that earwax is 80% dead skin?

What are we waiting for? What is the meaning of the Great Pyramid? What secrets does it actually hold, and what could this mean to us today? Could it be that the Pyramid is not just some mystical object from times gone by, but that the meanings it holds are as relevent to us today as they were to its builders? Could it be that, as a symbol, it actually serves as a complex three-dimensional heiroglyph, or is it the Holy Grail itself? What if the pyramid could speak? The Voice of the Pyramid is a journey into other dimensions and other lands - a place where common and accepted thought is challenged, and new ideas are set into place. It tells of a place where each of us becomes Horus, as the Risen Sun, and a place where the Pyramid becomes so much more than previously thought.
